royhall:
That's a very good price for an AGM battery. Nice one.

Oddjob:
If my head was leaking, I'd go see a doctor Martin. Last thing you want is brain cells coming out of your ears.

Bit late to advise but all batteries are not the same, even of the same type. Check CCA figures for Cold Cranking Amps, the higher the figure the stronger the battery.

For the 500/550 the standard battery was the Yuasa 12N12A-4A1, the wet cell battery has about the same CCA as an AGM, the Exide has the most of any of the replacements at 165 CCA, however you get what you pay for. If you want an AGM (and who wouldn't, no battery acid spilling all over your new paintwork and chrome) then the cheapest is the Powerline at £30, it's a 150 CCA battery, the slightly more expensive Numax at £41.95 is however less powerful at 135 CCA, so I'd avoid that, the best is the Motobatt at 160 CCA but it's a lot more expensive at £63.03. Given the choice you can buy 2 Powerline batteries for less than 1 Motobatt, it's slightly less powerful but not that much. I'd buy that one I think.

I always use a battery pack for more power when running a compression test post a picture of your leak only in Totham if you need a hand

Oddjob, I bought the Powerline. It Quotes a CCA rating of 200A. https://www.tayna.co.uk/motorcycle-batteries/powerline/yb14l-a2-agm/
Be a bit annoyed if that's inaccurate.
